actually yeah the only distinction i see is between BASIC based languages and C based languages.once you learn the concepts it does start to feel an awful lot like learning another dialect rather than another languageVB-->basicC#-->CC++->CPython-->basicjava-->Cphp-->C

most draw from c

java is just plain amazing.java must have the largest library and the most capabilities of any language, however i think it would take the longest time to learn too, im still trying to find a decent ide so i can learn it.

Maybe we should move this thread now lolesp. since im gonna drop a bomb no one will agree with.

i think we should standardize languages and all their libraries and capabilities into one language with different modes.

I find this very odd.. First I like how you said almost done learning C++. Young one, you will learn that you never fully learn a language. But even so. I find it weird that you'd say python, JS and C++ seem similar. I honestly couldn't disagree with you more. Of course it's just an opinion, I suppose. Python has a very laxed syntax. C++ has a strict syntax.. IMO, if I had to compare them, I'd say Java is A LOT more related to C++ than python.

They both came from C and they're both ambitious languages that extend its functionaility.But yeah its accepted that languages are divided into basic based and c basedi personally prefer basic based languages because they're faster to write and easier to read.unfortunately there are no low-level basic based languages though.i would say python and Vbdotnet are practically the same language thoughand yeah same for java and c++and also yeah i learn something new about VB at least every week.

I think he just means that all high level languages are basically the same other than syntax. In the sense that they all have functions, conditional statements, ect. I agree with that. Of course they have they all have differences, but once you know one language learning another is basically just a matter of getting down the syntax.

This is a bit off topic though, lets get back to disscussing cute girls.

I just wanted to see what would happen if i triple quoted lolYeah letsdoes anyone know of the existence of any cute chicks on this particular domain? lol

Yeah, I get the odd part a lot hahaSad face let me rephrase, I am almost done with the course xD

I always program using whitespace, whether it is required or not, as I think it helps make it easier to debug/read if need be; so this usually doesn't bother me. I was mainly talking about how you use keywords, such as in C++ a for statement is:

That's what I mean by different in syntax. I feel JavaScript is more like C++Python is kind of similar too, using headers among others, but syntax wise, I feel JavaScript and C++ are closer.

me/this,property,dim,private,public,void,function,sub,if then,else,elseif,goto...?,resume,exit,for,[next],while,do while,loop,step,select case,for each,cant remember the keyword for user defined types but that too (would be struct in c++ i think),class,import,option,staticmaybe some i missedso learning another language just means learning these for each language, then the namespaces.

ALSO: conditional compilers

Are there any HTS hotties? lollemme know if you spot them

there were some cute chicks in the photo gallery however i didn't have the time to run through them all lol

the step is optional as is initializing the i variable [as byte]but i do both for clarity

Cstr() to convert to a string

idk if it matters but you really want to do a type conversion to string before you print out a numbernot sure if it actually has to implicitly convert there but avoiding implicit conversions is very goodlol

also use byte data type for small numbers not integer. lol
